Hi there,
I’m struggeling in getting the anchor field to a new ACF-Block, with acf_register_block_type.
According to this page it should work: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/blocks/
I tried: supports 'anchor' => true 'id' => true.
But it always just show me the class-name, not any anchor or id field.
Does anybody has an Idea what I’m making wrong?
Hello everyone,
I am also confused with this option. Is it available somewhere? Where to set that 'anchor' for a block?
I’ve got this answer from the ACF-Support.
Thank you for your email.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the acf_register_block_type() function currently does not support the ‘anchor’ property. You can have a look at its documentation here https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf_register_block_type/.
I hope this helps and kindly let me know how this goes :).
My teammate calims that it works, just have to add 'supports' => array('anchor') while registering the block. Update the ACF, have a try and let me know
I just tried it with ACF 5.9.4.
Unfortunately without success. Does it work for you?
@freddyfy @sabrinahill
You need to set anchor to true, then click on the block in the panel admin and on the right side Block -> Advanced there is an anchor setting.
'supports' => array( 'anchor' => true )
@kopiczko-sebastian can confirm it works perfectly. Thanks for this!
acf_register_block_type(
array(
'name' => 'countdown',
'title' => __('Countdown', TEXTDOMAIN),
'description' => __('A custom Countdown block.', TEXTDOMAIN),
'render_template' => 'template-parts/blocks/countdown.php',
'category' => 'my-custom-blocks',
'icon' => 'calendar-alt',
'keywords' => array( 'countdown', 'date', 'time' ),
'supports' => array( 'anchor' => true )
)
);
If it “works”, why ‘anchor’ doesn’t appears into parameters list of documentation?
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf_register_block_type/#parameters
Anchor IS indirectly mentioned in the documentation: the documentation states:
supports
(Array) (Optional) An array of features to support. All properties from the JavaScript block supports documentation may be used. The following options are supported:
If you read the linked documentation at https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/block-api/block-supports/ — anchor is the first parameter on the list.
